Honey Blood
(Honey, red, and blue food coloring makes for convincing fake blood)
Oh, Christ.
Let me taste the honey blood I once spilled.
Let me put lips to split wrists and suckle
From the abhorrent teet of despair.
Let me snake inside their veins,
Tongue the marrow of their bones.
~
Lucifer in Heaven, Christ in Hell
I want to feel the cold press of tile
Against my cheek and smell the smoke
Shoved against my teeth.
I want to shake like my bones are trying
To escape my skin.
.
Take me back.
I'm starving for those rollercoaster lows,
The screaming woes of an empty stomach
And dull, glassy eyes.
Take me back to the goldfish pond of rules
And the pretty way I used to spin lies.
